Blackawton, Greenslade Road, TQ9

Greenslade is a beautifully presented detached period home, set in a peaceful position on the edge of the village, enjoying the most wonderful southerly views across rolling countryside.

Lovingly renovated to a high standard, the house blends character and comfort effortlessly. There is an immediate sense of warmth throughout, with thoughtfully updated interiors, including new windows - complementing the charm and heritage of the original home.

Approached via a gravelled driveway, a stone pathway leads you through the front garden towards what is undoubtedly one of the home’s most striking features - the elegant glass veranda that stretches across the front elevation. This architectural addition not only enhances the façade but creates a wonderful, light-filled transitional space, perfect for sitting out and enjoying the garden and far-reaching countryside views in all seasons.

Stepping inside, the house opens into a welcoming hallway that flows seamlessly into the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room. This is very much the heart of the home - perfect for modern family living and entertaining - centred around a large freestanding island and finished with beautiful Delabole slate flooring. A wood burning stove adds both warmth and atmosphere, while generous storage ensures practicality sits alongside style.

Leading off the kitchen is a wonderfully light-filled space with a glazed roof, currently arranged as a combined inner hall and utility area. This highly versatile room offers excellent additional storage and includes a useful cloakroom. Beyond this, a further area, which links to the bedroom above, provides exciting potential for annexe-style living or guest accommodation, if required.

The sitting room is an elegant and inviting space, full of character, with a feature fireplace and wood burning stove. Large windows frame views over the garden, creating a light yet cosy environment for relaxing.

Upstairs, the first floor offers a bright and airy landing with a large window overlooking the garden, alongside three well-proportioned double bedrooms to the front of the property and a fourth which enjoys a unique mezzanine level overlooking the rear inner hall, adding a sense of architectural interest and flexibility. A beautifully fitted family bathroom and separate shower room complete the accommodation.

Greenslade is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway with a circular turning circle, creating an elegant sense of arrival while providing ample parking. To one side, there is further space for several vehicles, ensuring both practicality and ease for family living or entertaining.

The gardens are, quite simply, one of the standout features of this home.

To the front, the stunning south-facing walled garden is private, level and beautifully maintained, offering a perfect balance of structure and softness with manicured lawns and established planting. There is a real sense of calm here, creating an inviting space to relax and unwind.

Whether enjoying a quiet moment beneath the veranda or entertaining friends, it is a garden designed to be lived in and appreciated. A useful storage barn sits discreetly within the grounds, ensuring practicality without detracting from the overall beauty of the setting.

A building plot with planning permission (2531/18/FUL) is also available by separate negotiation, presenting an exciting opportunity to create a beautifully designed, south-facing eco home, set within approximately 0.70 of an acre, perfectly hidden within the landscape.
